From New York Post (tabloid):
A military judge on Friday threw out a key confession made by the self-proclaimed mastermind of the 9/11 attacks — in a major blow to the feds that could derail the already long-delayed case.
Head plotter Khalid Sheikh Mohammed’s 2007 statements made to FBI investigators were not voluntarily given, trial judge Lt. Col. Michael Schrama wrote in a bombshell ruling. The US military did not make the decision public — citing a “security review” — but sources familiar with its contents said the judge axed Mohammed’s confessions from the case in the ruling, saying the admitted terrorist was subject to “severe coercion” from FBI agents.
